On 2 April 1870, Tom Saunders discovered gold on Red Hill and so began what has often been referred to as ‘the last of the poor man’s gold rushes’. By June of that year, 500 people were on the Gulgong gold fields, and by 1872, when the first official census was taken, it was estimated that the population of Gulgong and its satellite villages was approximately 20 000.
Pure joy as you wake to the sunrise. Awe as you make it to the snowy peak. A sense of adventure as you motor across red plains. The relief of rejuvenation as you wade into an alpine stream. Connection as you taste native, fragrant leaves. A sense of belonging as you return to your favourite holiday house. Freedom as you dash into the waves. Discover the endless feelings a visit to NSW can inspire.
